Computer Fix is a newly invented rogue optimization application. It belongs to the same rogue family as System Fix and System Restore and it even resembles the two of them in appearance.
Computer Fix uses hacked websites as a platform to transmit the infection. It exploits vulnerabilities in the targeted computers in order to enter them. As soon as it manages to get inside the system, it starts deleting shortcuts from random locations and hides the content of some folders. It also evokes numerous alerts and notifications. This is done with the only aim to make the victim believe there is a serious computer problem. The fake scanning tool is also a part of the hacking scheme. The scans claim to have found many errors and then prompt the user to purchase the bogus full version of Computer Fix.
Do not let this fraudulent program deceive you. Remove it as soon as possible.
